This is a medium sized vase with gold/red tones predominant. The main design is a cockatoo bird on one side only. The handles are either foo dog or dragon. Unfortunately, the handles have brass rings which have chipped the two sides of the vase. It stands 13 1/2" tall and the middle is approx. 8 3/4" wide. I believe it to be Japanese.
Look like Kutani porcelain. A pic of bottom will surely help specialists :-)
Beautiful oriental vase;-)
